Herm Edwards speaks a lot of truth. Glad the Panthers don't have to worry about it.

Video won't play on my phone but I assume this from ESPN yesterday where he went near apoplectic about player selfishness. Saw that. Made the set uncomfortable. I laughed. And I'm not worried about JNo. He will do what's best for him and his...as he should. I just don't know what that is. I'll worry about it more after we win the SB.

he's right, though. and yeah....that's not something that we have to worry about with this team. the only one i have any concern about is #24. is he about the team or about the money?

Our team seems to get this, including # 24. until this year, Rivera has kept him on pretty short leash, but you've never heard Josh belly-aching about it. He shows up, does his job, and only talks crap about opponents and analysts (who can blame him). After this season, he will get paid. If the Panthers can't match other offers, I wouldn't blame him for leaving. I hope the hell that he doesn't, but he has earned the right to make as much money as possibly can.

#24 needs to get his butt back on his horse, 'cause he's starting to look pedestrian instead of equestrian.

He'll get the most money being franchised and we can draft a replacement who will be ready to take over his position before its time to pay Star and Short. 

Not to mention the fact that this is probably the only team who has a locker-room full of Pro-Bowlers and All-Pros who can shut his butt up really quick if he thinks he's anything more than a mid-sized cog in a very big wheel.

This is a great example of how to ruin your NFL team that all teams can learn from. This started from the GM when he hired Chip Kelly. GM should have realized that Kelly's scheme doesn't work with their personnel. Kelly should not have imposed his rigid scheme to the players he had. It is much easier to build a scheme around your players than blow up your team and find players that fit your scheme. 

We are lucky to have Dave, Rivera, and Shula to build this team around Cam. If we had a bad piece among those we might have been in a RG3 situation where they try to change the player to fit the scheme instead of making a scheme that fits the player. Flexibility is a great thing

i used to like herm but the more i see him the more he seems like a total moron

Germ can be a little bit of a ham...but he's got a great personality and a player's coach. Herm's all-good in my book...its Terry Bradshaw, Boomer and Chris Collinsworth that gets under my skin from time-to-time. 

As far as Terry goes, his better days should be spent comatose in his lazy-boy while his grandkids unawarely go running around like wild animals as he snores the day away twitching and mumbling about immaculate catches and Lynn Swan's bail-outs...'cause the game passed him by a long time ago.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
